Redesigning handoff with Figma’s Dev Mode and Jira

Handoff between designers and developers has often been thought of as a single moment in time. However, teams have started to embrace a more fluid collaboration model to ship higher quality products. To help designers and developers stay aligned in real time, we’ve made some exciting updates to our integrations with Jira and launched Dev Mode — a new workspace for developers in Figma.

In this session, Figma’s Developer Advocate, Akbar Mirza, and Atlassian’s Product Designer, Jade Jiang, discuss how Dev Mode and our integrations with Jira help designers and developers stay on the same page and collaborate more effectively.

They also chat with Twilio’s Staff Product Designer Sarah Li and Senior Principal UX Engineer Simon Taggart about how their team’s workflows foster continuous collaboration between designers and developers.
